On the sixth anniversary of Ismail Morina audaciously piloting a drone draped with an Albanian flag over the pitch at Belgrade’s Marakana stadium, FSF held the second convo of the 2020-21 season featuring James Montague’s 1312: Among the Ultras, A journey with the world’s most extreme fans.
The author joined us from Istanbul to share his fieldwork experiences and reflect on the process of writing a book that took him to 20 different countries. The Q&A with Montague, as expected, provided an opportunity to dig deeper into this engaging ethnography of a male-dominated youth fan culture.
Participants: John Boyd, Chuck Carlson, Alex Cizmic, John Ford, Andrew Guest, Titi Kou, Lindsay Krasnoff, David Kilpatrick, Tom McCabe, Danyel Reiche, Kirk Rudell, Adam Winkel, Andrew Weeks, and Peter Alegi.
